Actually,
if anyone is interested our CMA appliance can do image-based installs.

I would recommend that Wendy sticks with kickstarting,
but it is worth being aware that there are other ways to do it,
ie. equivalents to Norton Ghost for Linux.
I think I posted on this very subject a few months ago.
http://www.feyrer.de/g4u/ for instance.
Actually, and Dan will agree with me here :-)
kickstarting is probably better in the case where you have a set
of mixed machines.
Imaging will work, but if you have wildly different hard drive sizes
and a wonderful zoo of different Ethernet adapters you might end up
tearing your hair out.
(ps. for kickstart, read autoyast etc. etc.)
